Mama, Mama, Ich bin in dem La La Land

Details

If Toxic is Roger Klug’s Pop Masterpiece, then Mama, Mama is his Garage Rock Album. The guitars are cranked one louder, and the ancient 8-track machine which died shortly after mixing this opus replicates everything in Full Analog Glory. Check out the guitar textures of “Our Friend Jess” and “They Ain’t The Same,” relish the devil-may-care vocal delivery of “Tongue Tied” and “About Your Cat,” but don’t ignore the baroque yet pathological “Austin and Aaron” with its gorgeous string quartet and “Vibin’,” which could be described as a nightmare that swings.

Performed by Roger Klug
